Manymade Meals @ Nikolaj Contemporary Art Center
15-01-2013 by Majken Overgaard
Thursday January 17 from 17-20 we will host another round of Manymade Meals in Nikolaj.So come join us if you need to get your project funded!
This is the concept...
You join us for dinner and pay 130 DKK for the meal and a ballot. Around 30 DKK goes to the dinner and the rest of the money is collected in a pool. During the dinner, you can pitch your project to the crowd in whatever way you want: talk, sing, draw or perform. In the end the crowd votes for their preferred project and the winner receives the collected pool of money. You can also just join for the food and the fun - you don’t have to pitch.
Who?
Manymade Meals is for artists, musicians, architects, movie makers, technological entrepreneurs and anyone who is interested in experiencing and supporting art and culture.
Why?
It’s a chance to get together and support art projects you believe in while enjoying dinner in a casual setting with cool people.
If you have a project, it’s a great way to communicate your work to a new audience and possibly to receive some funding to kick-start your idea.

Manymade Meals is developed by Manymade and carried out together with local partners and institutions in the Nordic countries.This time together with Nikolaj Contemporary Art Center, Nikolaj Plads, Copenhagen.
We look forward to see you!

On top of that we met a group of inspiring Faroese artists whom we hope to hear and see more of in the future at Manymade. Thanks to Kristian Black (http://www.kristianblak.com/), Jonas Bloch from Bloch Studio (http://studiobloch.fo/) and Jan Andersson (http://www.steinprent.com)

Manymade Workshop at KPH
23-09-2012 by Majken Overgaard
Thursday September 27 Manymade will host a workshop about crowdfunding at KPHCrowdfunding is when a group of people finance a project or activity together. The workshop will provide insight into how crowdfunding works - its many forms and models - and the different possibilities that crowdfunding offers when developing projects.
Crowdfunding can be used actively as a creative tool for artists, entrepreneurs and institutions/organisations. Using crowdfunding you invite the user to take part in a development process and you establish direct contact with the end-user of your product or service. This close relation to the users creates numerous possibilities for artists, entrepreneurs and institutions/organisations to develop and distribute their activities.
The workshop will introduce strategies and present tools for artists, entrepreneurs and institutions to develop their projects, products and/or services through.
The workshop will take place September 27 at KPH Projects from 17-19.
The program is:
17-18: Introduction to crowdfunding/crowdsourcing and Manymade
18-19: How to make a crowdfunding campaign - talk about individual projects
If you have ideas for projects you are welcome to contact us in advance at manymade@manymade.org
Please sign up here: http://www.facebook.com/events/225896397540078/
We look forward!
